Types of Cloning • Reproductive Cloning – making copies of a whole animal/human – useful to propagate transgenic /genetically modified organisms • Therapeutic Cloning – making copies of an embryo in order to harvest its stem cells – useful for research or stem cell transplants (rebuild organs) to cure disease • DNA or Gene Cloning – making copies of DNA/genes - Useful for research, making pharmaceutical and industrial proteins, gene therapy, and GM organisms
